You guys, I'm trying something new today. I styled this adorable Madewell dress two ways - one with heels and one with sneaks. What are your thoughts?
What is your style? More casual or do you prefer to primp? I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments!
I just love how comfortable this Madewell dress is - you can so easily . . .

So, Millie has been sick the last few days, and I'm fairly certain it was stress induced. Since I work from home, she's used to having me around basically 24/7 (I live to serve my dog). This past week, I had to go out of town overnight. It JUST SO HAPPENED that she got sick while I was away. Coincidence? I think not. She definitely gets her flare . . .

Okay you guys - this post is a double-whammy. I'm sharing two big things that have been on my mind lately. The first is my new favorite clothing line, & Other Stories. I've been pretty transparent with you guys about my evolving style. (You can read this post about how I knew I had become an adult when I no longer found myself drawn to the . . .

Anyone else still recovering from last week's Instagram crash?? Honestly, when Instagram is down, I find myself drawn to Facebook to pass the time. But Instagram AND Facebook!? Removing social media made me realize how much idle time I spend scrolling. Ooft - I will definitely be dusting off my library card.
So, if you've been following . . .

If you guys have been following my home decor adventures, you know there is very little that makes me happier than a well-priced cloche or perfect throw pillow. That's why, when I saw this round brass mirror at Target, I knew I had to have it.
And then there's the issue of wanting to stay married. I had been spending so much on decorating our . . .

In case you guys missed one of my thousands of #ProudDogMom IG posts, Mike and I adopted our pup, Millie, in October!
We went back and forth for the longest time, knowing we wanted a dog while being slightly apprehensive about our ability to properly care for one. We didn’t take the commitment lightly – especially with so many pet parents . . .

How was everyone's weekend!? Mike has been working a ton (it's tax season), so Millie and I are spending a lot of Saturdays just the two of us. The weekdays are so crazy that I've been enjoying taking ONE day during the week to do nothing (I should clarify that NOTHING usually entails grocery shopping, going to the dog park, cleaning the bathrooms, . . .

What are your favorite spring trends this year? I have to say, I'm loving all of the camo and shades of olive. I found the softest Utility Jacket - it feels like pajamas! So excited to share it with you today.
Can you guys believe Mother's Day is right around the corner? We're seriously two months away. How is already March?? Weren't we just . . .

When did you guys realize that you had become an adult? Was it the moment that the bills were suddenly addressed to you instead of your parents? Or was it when you started to get excited about a new throw pillows? Or when a fully stocked fridge and clean laundry made you feel like you could conquer anything?
For me, it was all of the above, . . .

Happy Monday, bloggerverse! I hope everyone had a great weekend. I took Saturday and did absolutely. nothing. NOTHING. I laid on my couch and had my own Friends marathon with Millie sleeping on top of me for most of it. I'm not great at sitting still, but I felt like I needed it, and I was right. It was perfect.
I think what workaholics like . . .
